GamerTab That was an excellent one.

Wordiezett So much average

Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

liambl I really don't know where to start, but here it goes:THE GOOD: Cuba Gooding Jr. What else can I say; this man has had several Oscar nominations. So far in his life, he has only won ONE. With that said, this should have been his next.THE BAD: EVERYTHING ELSE! I mean, the premise alone is, not only brilliant, but unique: An adolescent boy with a rare condition that causes baldness, how in the hell couldn't they have made that work!?I'll tell you how, just let me list down every adolescent movie clique you can think of:It starts out with the protagonist having a regular everyday life, up until his (or her) parent tells the whole family that they have to move.Upon arriving to the new place, the protagonist has a real difficult time fitting in. More so, he (or she) is picked on just for being "different".He (or she) eventually falls for an attractive, yet completely shallow, girl (or guy) and tries hard in so many ways to get her (or his attention).At the end of the climax, he (or she) later realizes that he (or she) never needed affection from her (or him) to begin with.this whole movie is filled with nothing but one bad joke after another: each one relies on either pedophilia, awkwardness, or bad taste.THE ACTING: What else can I say other than the fact that it is god- awful. I mean, as bad as everyone else is in this, they are nowhere near as horrendous as Spencer Breslin. He's proved that, since The Santa Clause 2, he cannot act to save his life.All in all, (with the exception of CGJr.) there is no real effort put into this train wreck whatsoever, so don't waste your time on it.

Roland E. Zwick "Harold" provides more laughs per minute than any comedy in recent memory.The premise of Greg Fields' and director T. Sean Shannon's script provides us with a veritable gold mine of sparkling comedy nuggets. 13-year-old Harold has virtually nothing in the world going for him - for not only is he an eternally put-upon, socially awkward nerd, but his early-onset male-pattern-baldness makes people assume he's a middle-age man. This, of course, leads to a great deal of humiliation and social rejection for the kid - but countless moments of awkward-situation and mistaken-identity hilarity for the audience. But Harold does have at least two things in his favor: a rapier wit that allows him to hold his own in any situation – no matter how surrealistic and bizarre in nature - and a mature enough understanding of how the world actually works to help him navigate through life's rough waters and emerge a stronger person in the end (at times he seems like Woody Allen as we imagine he might have been right at the onset of puberty). And it's that spirit of knowing optimism, more than anything else, that purges "Harold" of cruelty and makes us laugh WITH rather than AT the character.I don't know where these guys Fields and Shannon came from, but their script for this film is a gem of originality, tonal balance and understated satire. In addition, the movie is blessed with an array of outstanding performances, starting with Spenser Breslin, who makes of Harold a thoroughly likable and wholly relatable figure. Ditto for the rest of the cast, which includes Ally Sheedy, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Rachel Dratch, Chris Parnell, Stella Maeve, Suzanne Shepherd, Elizabeth Gilles and Robert Gorry.Together they've made an endearing, hilarious comedy that grinds the over-priced and overpaid Hollywood big boys of the business into the dust.

marcmatthews T.Sean Shannon has called upon his friends (and family) and created a unique, funny film. Modeled after the typical high-school, new-kid, nerd plot, this movie has enough funny parts to make me rate it a 9. If I had to describe it, I would say "Sixteen-Candles" meets "Mr Woodcock" would be a good-approximation.Filled with bit-parts by SNL players, as well as comic veterans and Oscar-winners(!), Harold keeps you guessing at a good pace all while making you giggle/laugh/broo-hah-hah in many places.I think it must have been a nice departure for the seasoned actors to play the comedian role... the newbies held their own alongside. I predict that several of the young actors will go on to further roles. I am not sure about T.Sean's brother, Pat, though. His cameo is as short as he is bald (and now, old)! :)Well worth the rental/download!

alanmstevenson all i can say is wow what a great surprise this movie was,went in not expecting much but this was a total shock went far in my ideas of comedy to take a small time film and create a funny simple and creative movie about a 13 year old boy with baldness................this years Napoleon dynamite some great one liners and shock and horror moments to make anybody cringe with laughter......................going by the voting so far i bear to think what comedy people like because most will like this movie,its cool funny and has a good story,simple as it is,sometimes a simple story with predictable scenes is what people want and this takes those and proves a right treat,it will really depend on your mood watching this.awesome one liners too boot......
